Morning Glory

I'd like to introduce my blog guest, a woman engraved on the heart of God. She's an Arkansas girl and a brilliant light to those of us who know her. She's my friend. And, I say this with the utmost gratitude. Tara came into my life about five years ago when I joined...

The addition of each child to the McCauley home gave Ann the greatest personal satisfaction. She was born to be a mother. She’s learned so much about human nature, the crippling of insecurity, the power of love, the gentle greatness of the Heavenly Father, and her experiences add richness to every book project and speaking opportunity.
